Condition
The panel is sound. There is a milky varnish preventing UV light from fully penetrating, however examination under UV light appears to reveal a few scattered dots of retouching most predominately to the model's proper left hand, the cheek and the green background and to the lower corners.There is some frame abrasion along the extreme edges with associated dots of retouching visible under UV light and a few paint losses. This work is in overall fairly good condition.
